It used to be that your options for popcorn were limited to either homemade or at the ball game or circus. No longer. Now, popcorn is a specialty that caters to every palate. Here are some of the places we recommend for the popcorn connoisseur.
Popped! Republic
Popped! Republic offers a great array of DC themed flavored from their 2381 South Dove Street, Alexandria, Virginia, retail location. Among their savory favors, the White House White Cheddar gets our vote. We also admit a craving for their Cinnamon Roll K Street Kettle Korn. In addition to the store, they also have a popcorn food truck, and yes, you can have it shipped to you. The popcorn. Not the truck.
Garrett Popcorn Shops

Garrett Popcorn Shops, are scattered conveniently throughout Chicago, at 26 W. Randolph, 625 N. Michigan, and 4 E. Madison. That means you can satisfy your taste for their delicious selections wherever you may be in the Windy City. It’s hard to go to Chicago and not get some Garrett’s. Go for the cheese-caramel mix. Or splurge with the Macadamia CaramelCrisp(r). We are simply nuts about it.
Popportunity
Buffalo Blue Cheese. Caramel Apple, Dill Pickle, and Maple Bacon are just some of the creative and alluring favors that draw people to Popportunity, in Columbus, Indiana. In a city famous for its stunning collection of modern architecture, you can find popcorn that is just your style. The store is located at 1122 25th Street.
